Chapter 160: I Want to Do It with You and Nanase-senpai #2
Miyuki was silent for a long, long time.
She just stared blankly at the plain leather dashboard cover, lost in thought.
I was about to ask if she was okay, but when I saw how twisted her expression was, I decided to just stay quiet.
I don't know how much time passed like that.
After an agonizing wait, Miyuki finally turned to look at me.
“Did I understand that right...? You’re saying that since Nanase-senpai has no experience, you’re going to give it to her?”
She understood perfectly.
That was exactly it.
“Well, no...”
I tried to avoid Miyuki’s gaze and turn my head toward the window.
But then,
“Hey.”
Miyuki’s voice, colder than ice, called out to me, and my entire body froze.
It was the first time she, who always called me ‘Matsuda-kun’ no matter what, had ever used that tone.
A sudden chill ran through my body. Even with the heater blasting, I felt cold.
“...Yeah.”
“Do you want to die?”
“Sorry.”
“Do I look like some pushover who’ll do anything you say?”
“No.”
“Then what? Do you actually have a death wish?”
She wasn’t shouting, hitting me, or crying. Her cold composure was what made it even more terrifying.
I want to build a harem, but I also want your permission... Is there any way you could understand my heart?
That’s what I wanted to say... but there was no need to make her angrier.
Besides, no matter what bullshit I spouted, the fact that I was a piece of trash wouldn’t change.
So I decided to just shut up.
“I guess this is something that’s possible within your common sense, Matsuda-kun?”
“That’s not it...”
“Then why would you say something like that?”
“Miyuki. Just a second...”
I reached out to take Miyuki’s hand, trying to calm her down as her face began to turn red.
But Miyuki swung her arm, violently shaking my hand off.
Seeing her do that, my heart sank.
I think the greatest crisis of my DokiAka life had just arrived.
I stopped all the calculating in my head and offered Miyuki a sincere apology.
“I’m really sorry.”
At that, Miyuki bit her lower lip hard, her emotions flaring up.
“Sheesh...!”
She clenched her fists and began to tremble.
I’m pretty sure I’m fucked. Shouldn’t I just say I won’t do it?
As I was thinking that and watching Miyuki, she suddenly reached out, grabbed the front of my uniform, and pulled my upper body toward her.
My body was pulled forward helplessly.
While I was flustered by this first display of forcefulness from Miyuki, she scowled and asked.
“Did something happen with Nanase-senpai?”
It was a fair question.
She must have been wondering where I got the confidence to just declare I was going to sleep with Chinami.
“We’re just close.”
“Close enough to give each other massages alone?”
“That was just to thank her for her hard work...”
“Am I not enough for you? Is your sex drive that out of control?”
“Hey... why would you say something like that... You know how much I like you... That’s not it at all.”
At my words, Miyuki’s expression softened slightly.
In this situation, anything I said would sound like an excuse, but her reaction meant that she knew.
She knew how sincere I was when I was with her.
All my efforts up until now were finally paying off.
I hadn’t acted that way just to have a way out of difficult situations like this, but if it could calm Miyuki’s anger even a little, then anything was fine.
“Do you even like me?”
“Of course I do.”
“Considering what you just said, I find that hard to believe.”
“What do I have to do for you to believe me? Should I take off all my clothes, get out of the car, and start shouting right now?”
“Do it.”
“Alright.”
I carefully moved away from Miyuki and brought my hands to my uniform dress shirt.
One by one, the buttons came undone from the top, revealing my chest.
After I had the shirt halfway off, I unclipped my pants and was about to open the car door and get out.
That’s when Miyuki slapped my arm.
“You only do things I hate...!”
Smack!
“You pick and choose them...!”
Smack!
“You’re so annoying...!”
Smack!
After hitting my arm three times with just enough force to sting, Miyuki stared at me silently for a moment before letting out a deep sigh.
“Haaah... Button your shirt back up.”
She was like a mother dragging her son back inside after he actually tried to leave when she told him to.
Should I be glad she didn't grab me by the hair?
In any case, I felt a little relieved. I could feel the frigid air inside the car warming up, if only slightly.
“Okay.”
I answered obediently and slowly buttoned up my clothes.
Was my slow pace frustrating her?
Miyuki huffed through her nose and started buttoning my shirt for me.
Then, she glanced at me and grumbled.
“What are you so confident about, anyway... being so pointlessly honest...”
“I don’t know what to say other than I’m sorry...”
“Whatever, you idiot.”
An idiot... so I’ve been promoted from a fool.
I wasn’t sure if I should be happy about that or not.
“But... just because you want to do it, Matsuda-kun, is it immediately possible...? Have you ever even had a conversation like this with her?”
At Miyuki’s follow-up question, my ears perked up.
Is she actually going to let me? For real?
“No.”
“Then what are you going to do? I don’t think someone as innocent as Nanase-senpai would agree...”
“I was just going to try.”
“And if she seems like she doesn’t want to?”
“Then I’d have to give up.”
“Really...?”
Miyuki’s expression relaxed even more.
I guess she was a little relieved because she didn’t think Chinami would ever offer up her body.
“Do you really want to do it with Nanase-senpai and me, Matsuda-kun?”
“I did, but seeing your reaction is making me change my mind a little. I’m fine either way.”
“...Then who are you going to recruit...?”
She seemed to be considering it slightly.
This is where I should back off completely.
No, I’ll just pretend to back off while I read the situation.
“It’s not about recruiting, we just don’t have to do it. When you gave me permission yesterday, I just lost my mind for a second.”
“.....”
“Can I hug you?”
“No.”
Though she refused, Miyuki’s upper body was already leaning ever so slightly toward me.
Noticing this, I cautiously watched her expression as I slowly pulled her into a hug.
Miyuki’s body quietly accepted my embrace.
I gently stroked her back, from top to bottom, over and over.
Then, Miyuki’s arms slowly rose, slipped between my armpits, and squeezed my lats.
I let out a silent sigh of relief. Just as I was about to say something,
“This is the absolute last time I’m agreeing to something so ridiculous.”
Miyuki beat me to it.
“Wha...”
“I’m not done talking. Until Christmas, I’m going to pretend what happened yesterday and today never happened. If things with Nanase-senpai aren’t settled by then? Then it’s over. The threesome will be off the table. And it will stay that way. Got it?”
The moment I heard that, I broke the hug and grabbed Miyuki’s shoulders.
Then, I spoke in a serious tone.
“You don’t have to force yourself to agree.”
“I’m not forcing myself. I just feel like if we let this go, you’ll have regrets, Matsuda-kun. And I’d feel awkward about it too...”
Awkward...?
Does she think that since she’s already glimpsed my preferences and even gave special permission for a threesome, if it all just fizzles out, there will be something nagging at the back of her mind?
“Besides, if I give you permission, you’ll treat me even better from now on, right?”
“Well, yeah...”
“Right. I think so too.”
“No, if you don’t give me a chance to talk...”
“You will, won’t you? Right?”
“I mean, yeah... But I was trying to say that I’ll treat you well even if you don’t do this...”
“Can’t you take a hint, Matsuda-kun?”
Her words snapped me out of the stream of excuses I was about to unleash.
That’s right. I should refrain from spouting useless words here and just accept Miyuki’s angelic mercy.
Her answer was born from her deep consideration for me.
Of course, she might have said that because our previous conversation made her think the chances of me and Chinami getting together were slim.
Go ahead and try your best, since it’s not going to work out anyway.
But even so, just allowing me to sleep with another woman must be tearing her heart apart.
And here I was, about to spew excuses, completely oblivious to her feelings... I’m disqualified as a harem protagonist.
Seeing Miyuki’s reaction must have clouded my judgment, making me think everything was about to fall apart.
Thank you, Miyuki.
Just like you said, I’ll treat you even better from now on. And I’ll work hard to make it so that even if a threesome isn’t your thing, you at least won’t feel any aversion to it.
I conveyed my sincere feelings to her internally, then pulled her into another hug. We stayed like that in the car for a long time, feeling each other’s warmth.
The deadline is Christmas.
If I can’t convince Chinami to have a threesome with Miyuki by then, I’d have to consider the harem a lost cause.
The timeline is tight. But I have to make it work somehow.
If you asked me if I was confident, I wouldn’t know how to answer.
It’s true that I’m close with Chinami. I think getting her into bed would be smooth sailing.
But a harem... no, a threesome is a whole different territory.
Strictly speaking, Chinami and I hadn’t built up the same level of bond that Miyuki and I had.
If I had more time, I could slowly melt Chinami’s defenses and lead her to it, but that wasn’t an option...
Even Miyuki, who was with me almost every day, had only agreed through a stroke of miraculous luck. If I were to ask Chinami the same question, the outcome was painfully obvious.
To increase my chances, I needed to approach Chinami in a different way.
For now, sleeping with her comes first... I’ll focus on just that.
